Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for generating dynamic digital content in privacy preserving ways are described. In one aspect, a method includes receiving, by a trusted server and from multiple content platforms, digital component data for digital components. The server received, from each content platform, dynamic content selection logic for selecting discrete content elements for digital components of the content platform. The server selects, from digital components for which digital component data is stored in a digital component repository, candidate digital components based at least on user data included in a digital component request.

Abstract: The present disclosure is related to systems and methods for assisting a user in practicing a smart musical instrument. The method includes obtaining a real-time image of the user playing the smart musical instrument. The method also includes obtaining information associated with a current key being pressed and information associated with a plurality of reference fingerings from the smart musical instrument. The method also includes displaying the real-time image in real-time. The method also includes determining whether a current fingering associated with the current key being pressed matches with a reference fingering, of the plurality of reference fingerings, associated with the current key being pressed. In response to a determination that the current fingering associated with the current key being pressed does not match the reference fingering, the method further includes generating a reminder. The method still further includes displaying the reference fingering corresponding to the current fingering.

Abstract: Systems and methods for musical performance are provided. In some embodiments, a system for musical performance includes a processing device to: receive performance information related to a first performance of a piece of music on a first musical instrument; generate at least one control signal based on the performance information; and produce a second performance based on the control signal, wherein to produce the second performance, the processing device is further to: control at least one tone generating device of a second musical instrument to perform the music using the control signal.

Abstract: A smart musical instrument system for replaying user performance with auto-play, electronic sound source or video, the system may include a musical instrument, a plurality of sensors, and a processing device. The plurality of sensors may be configured to obtain performance data of a user. The plurality of sensors may include a first sensor configured to obtain first performance data of the user. The performance data may include the first performance data indicating operations of a musical instrument. The processing device may be in communication with the plurality of sensors. The processing device may be configured to compare the performance data with reference music data to generate a comparison result and generate feedback based on the comparison result.

Abstract: Discovered is a novel protein and variants thereof whose activity at the NMDA receptor causes an increased efflux of calcium ions through the channel of said receptor. This activity is downregulated by the NR3A subunit of NMDA. Also discovered are the nucleic acid sequences encoding said novel protein and variants thereof. The discovery is useful for the diagnosing of NMDA receptor dysregulation and the treatment of NMDA receptor dysregulation related disorders. In addition, the discovery is useful for the further discovery of modulators affecting the activity of the novel protein and variants thereof at the NMDA receptor.

Abstract: A motor with an oil seal. The oil seal includes a first storage wall disposed in a position corresponding to a recess of a shaft. The oil seal receives lubricant and prevents leakage of the lubricant, enhancing self-lubrication of the motor. A bottom storage tank with a specific sloped surface is provided in the motor. During rotation of the shaft, the bottom storage tank increases usage of the lubricant, thereby enhancing self-lubrication of the motor.
